Saw a commercial for it just now (first footage I've actually seen because right now I just don't care about the game) and there was a voice-over about how lies are still lies and truth this and that... Sounded a lot like MW2's plot

Looks badass, although there are similar elements that MW2 has. E.g. secret infiltration in the snow on a mountain, helicopter crash, space based mission in the Blackbird etc. But I think that in a different context its pretty goddamn sweet. Also, the SPAS12 looked badass. Can tell many will rage on that when it comes out.

It's funny how most of the weapons we use today are quite old, or upgraded older models. Like AC-130's and ak-47's, those are antiques. I heard they're bringing back Reznov too. He'll probably look like santa, and be toting a minigun or something

Really excited about this game... I mean, who cares about historical accuracy at this point? Playing an American infantryman in Vietnam would not have been a fun game.... with Black Ops, they get to maintain that Modern Warfare over the top action as well as having that historical perspective by having it set during the Cold War.

Different weapons are cool and all as long you make them at least semi realistic. Granted a lot of guns nowadays have less recoil due to design improvements and the fact that soldiers are usually strong and can control a gun better than most, but still at least make them reasonably real with some recoil and correct sounds and design. I know some of the things are small, like shifty pointed out for the lols, the ejection port being on the correct side of the gun. I agree guns in video games should be fun but ffs at least make look, sound, and act like guns.

i do agree with you on the recoil thing. I'm really hoping for a larger variety of guns.
